Well. that at least explains it. The child ran across the front of the stationary bus to cross the road (all too common, in my experience).
Had that been all that went wrong, it's hard to see how the driver of
the van could have been guilty of anything. But Princess Drive is
limited to 30mph (even on the dual carriageway stretch inside the
Liverpool boundary, which is where the accident must have happened,
since that is the only part where there is a "second lane"). And he was
doing a speed measured at a minimum of 46mph.
As I remember it, that road used to be a frequent site for the pre-1974 Liverpool and Bootle Constabulary's white Minivan radar traps. I've seen
a few pulled over along that road (at the northern end, inside the city boundary). It's a pity if they've been stopped in favour of a stationary GATSO or something.

What a change has overcome May Sun!
A couple of weeks ago, and under the very same soubriquet (look it up,
May Sun), he posted to uk.d-i-y and when challenged, denied being May
Sun, utilising a string of childish fourth form-invective just as he
does above.
May Sun is, of course, a constantly off-topic *troll* in uk.r.c.
It is highly appropriate that News Individual Net's anti-troll defences
had shut him out of its server. After all, what business does he even
have in having his posts circulated by a university (sorry for the five syllable word)?

You've apparently posted about thirty recent other posts,

Certainly not from this report at least.

Very wise.
Absolutely no-one believed you. You just made yourself look silly.
Very silly.

Your wonderful NIN filter is helping you to be even more poorly informed
than you otherwise would be.
Did I call you a 'stupid cunt' on uk.d-i-y?
Just in case I didn't:
You stupid Cunt!
